This last weekend I headed up to Oregon with my parents for Tiara's (my niece) baptism. It was cloudy and cool for the first two days, I know I shouldn't have been surprised but I thought even Portland would be sunny in August!
We took advantage of the blackberries that grow everywhere and did some berrying.
Marshall and James picking, well James picking berries and Marshall eating berries.
We picked a lot of berries and even used some to make blackberry buckle. After berrying it was on to the main event of the weekend. The baptism was very nice and Tiara was so excited. My mom gave the talk on baptism, James performed the baptism and James, my dad and Marshall took part in the confirmation and I played the piano. Quite the family affair.
Congratulations Tiara!

I didn't know you had a blog!!! Where have I been??? I would imagine Christy told me, but she also knows that I forget tons!!!
I have been hoping someone from your family would start one cause I would love to see what is going on in your lives. This blogging thing is an awesome way to keep in touch.
Your mom and I email once in a while, but not often enough. Both of them are really busy, but it is nice to hear from them when they can.
Gosh, I am so glad that you have a blog. Hello!!!!!!!!
Yummy berries - looks like you had a great time!
